This is used by test_server and common_test + when it is safe to assume that the node will be + terminated after the test anyway. The purpose is to avoid + processes crashing when re-loading the original beam if + the processes is still running old code.</p> + <p> + Remote nodes will now continue to count code coverage if + the connection to the main node is broken. Earlier, a + broken connection would cause the cover_server on the + remote node to die and thus any still cover compiled + modules would cause process crash when trying to insert + cover data in ets tables that used to exist on the + cover_server. The new functionality also involves + synchronization with the main node if the nodes are + reconnected.</p> + <p> + *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***</p> + <p> + Own Id: OTP-10523 Aux Id: OTP-10427 </p> + </item> + <item> + <p>Where necessary a comment stating encoding has been + added to Erlang files.
